Booking Terms and Conditions

The properties on this website are offered for self-catering on a weekly basis, Saturday to Saturday (4pm on the day of arrival to 10am on the day of departure) unless otherwise stated, and subject to the following terms and conditions.

2. It is assumed that the Hirer has read and agreed to abide by these terms and conditions. Once that contract is made, the Hirer becomes liable for the full balance of rental charges. These are payable 8 weeks prior to commencement of the holiday.
   Non-payment of the balance of hire charges by the due date, will result in us treating the property as being available for re-booking.

Upon receipt of written confirmation of the cancellation from the hirer, we will endeavour to re-let the property and if successful will make a full refund to that hirer less an administration fee of £50, and any other expenses incurred in re-letting. Therefore we recommend that you take out holiday cancellation insurance.
